Donald Ross and the Highland Clearances - Andrew Ross

The Highland Clearances was a dark episode in Scottish history when many thousands of people were forced off lands that they and their kin had lived on for generations. Some boarded ships destined for the colonies of America and Australia, others ended up on small barren plots by the coast or in city slums. A few men were outspoken against the atrocities, and one of them was Donald Ross.Donald Ross was a Highlander, born in Sutherland in 1813. His father was the miller on the Skibo Castle Estate and Donald took over the mill when his father died. He and his family were subsequently evicted, fighting against their eviction in the Supreme Court but losing the case. Donald moved to Glasgow and within two years, as Agent for the Poor, helped over 1,500 people receive poor-relief payments, which were being withheld by local parish boards. In the 1850s Donald became the most outspoken critic of the Highland Clearances and wrote many detailed newspaper articles and pamphlets about mass evictions on Barra, Knoydart and Skye. His most famous publication was The Massacre of the Rosses, in which he graphically described the women of Strathcarron being brutally beaten by policemen for refusing to accept eviction notices. Donald supplied over 8,000 books and pamphlets for emigrants on the ill-fated Hercules. He also raised a lot of money to help poor people in the Hebrides, particularly during the infamous Potato Famine. However, Donald’s efforts were cut short by a scandal that saw him and his family emigrate to Nova Scotia.Donald’s inspirational story makes him an unsung hero of the poor.

Highland Cow & the Horse of the Woods - Roy Dennis

Appalled by the catastrophic decline of the capercaillie – once a common and widespread bird in Scotland – Roy Dennis has come up with solutions. The numbers of capers in Scotland’s pine forests have tumbled from 20,000 in the 1960s to about 400 today. The bird is facing extinction and without major conservation recovery could die out again, as it did in the early 19th century.Roy Dennis has known the caper since 1960 and writes about how to save this beautiful ‘great turkey-like bird’. The story – illustrated throughout by magnificent colour photographs – concerns its old pine forest habitat and how the capercaillie’s living space has become dysfunctional. The key to recovery is to mimic the original ancient ox, the great aurochs, which had a profound beneficial impact on the ecology of the woodlands. It was eliminated by humans millennia ago, but its place was taken by Neolithic cattle arriving here after a long migration from the Middle East, where they had been domesticated from local aurochs 10,000 years ago. It was a major step in human evolution.Those early cattle morphed into the Highland cow, which is the closest relative of its ancient ancestor. These cattle, herded by the people living in Scotland, were part of the woodland scene right through until the middle of the last century. Roy explains why they are the key to recovery – the cattle would restore the ecosystem, creating path networks, increasing biodiversity and invertebrate populations to the benefit of capercaillies but also for the whole of wild nature.The life of the capercaillie is dealt with in detail, as is the history and present situation of Highland cattle – the most recognisable cow in the world and a favourite with everyone. The contrast with commercial cattle is explained, as is how to get the maximum benefit for the capercaillie, including greatly increasing the Scots pine woodlands. This is a book by an expert, written for everyone.

Expanding the restrictive canon of days gone by, Riach also sets down a new core body of ‘Scottish Literature’: key writers and works in English, Scots, and Gaelic.Ranging across time and genre, Scottish Literature: an introduction invites you to hear Scotland through her own words.

The Scottish World - Billy Kay

''Thaim wi a guid Scots tongue in their heid are fit tae gang ower the warld'' In The Scottish World, renowned broadcaster Billy Kay takes us on a global journey of discovery, highlighting the extraordinary influence the Scots have had on communities and cultures on almost every continent. While others have questioned the self-confidence of the Scots, Kay has travelled the world from Bangkok to Brazil, Warsaw to Waikiki and found ringing endorsements for the integrity and intellect, the poetry and passion of the Scottish people in every country he has visited. He expands people''s view of Scotland by relating remarkable stories of the wealthy Scottish merchant community in Gdansk; of national geniuses of Scots descent, such as Lermontov in Russia and Grieg in Norway; of an American Civil War blamed on Sir Walter Scott and initiated in the St Andrew''s Society of Charleston; of inspirational missionaries in Calabar and Budapest; of Scotch professors establishing football in soccer strongholds such as Barcelona and São Paulo; of pioneers like Sandeman and Cockburn, and the Scottish roots of many of the great wines of Europe; and of their amazing involvement in liberation movements in Malawi, Chile, Peru, Greece, Corsica and India. The Scottish World is a celebration of the enormous contribution the Scots have made to the modern world.

Vibrační plošina inSPORTline Julisa

Vibrační plošina pro efektivní domácí posilování a uvolňování svalů. Prohnutý tvar, vertikální, horizontální a 3D vibrace, 60 rychlostí, nastavitelné expandéry, dálkové ovládání.. Vibrační plošina inSPORTline Julisa je ideální pomůckou pro posilování a formování postavy, masáž, uvolnění svalů nebo rychlou regeneraci po nadměrné fyzické námaze. Posilovat nebo uvolňovat můžete různé svalové skupiny. Masáže jsou velmi efektivní, uvolňující, bezpečné a časově nenáročné. Záleží jen na poloze, jakou na plošině zaujmete. Můžete na ní stát, sedět, provádět dřepy, kliky nebo různé formy vzporů. Volba je jen na vás a možností je spousta. Využít můžete i odnímatelné expandéry s měkkými madly a nastavitelnou délkou. Cvičení na vibrační plošině zvyšuje účinnost cviků, zapojujete i hluboké stabilizační svalstvo. Vibrační plošina inSPORTline Julisa nabízí 3 různé druhy vibrací - horizontální ze strany na stranu, oscilační (vertikální kývání) a 3D vibrace. Jednotlivé typy vibrací můžete i různě kombinovat. V každém programu máte na výběr ze 60 rychlostí vibrací. Snadno si tak zvolíte náročnost posilování nebo intenzitu masáže. Diody na stranách podle zvolené zátěže efektně svítí - zeleně, oranžově, nebo červeně. Měnit nastavení můžete pomocí přiloženého dálkového ovládání v podobě hodinek, které snadno připnete na ruku, nebo přímo na panelu s dotykovým LCD displejem. Ten přehledně zobrazuje aktuální rychlost, zvolený program, množství spálených kalorií a čas cvičení. Díky mírně prohnutému tvaru plošiny je cvičení komfortnější a zároveň stabilnější, především při širším rozkročení nebo při sedu. Pokud jsou navíc zapnuty všechny módy vibrací dohromady, při poloze tzv. surfaře pak takto tvarovaná deska krásně simuluje právě surfařskou jízdu na vlnách. I přes menší rozměry, které umožňují snadné skladování, působí vibrační plošina robustním dojmem. To dokládá i vysoká nosnost 120 kg. Protiskluzové gumové nožky v kombinaci s hmotností stroje 18 kg a přiloženou gumovou podložkou zajišťují, že se během cvičení plošina ani nehne a je velmi bezpečná. Protiskluzová je i samotná cvičební plocha. Vibrační plošina inSPORTline Julisa se hodí do každé domácnosti. Svaly s ní výborně posílíte i uvolníte. Typy vibrací: oscilační vibrace - vertikální kývání (amplituda 1 - 2 mm, frekvence 25 - 40 Hz) 3D vibrace - několik směrů vibrací, deska se nijak nehoupe, ale celá vibruje (amplituda 0 - 12 mm, frekvence 6 - 12 Hz) horizontální vibrace - pohyb ze strany na stranu (amplituda 0,5 - 4 mm, frekvence 7 - 11,5 Hz) kombinace oscilace a 3D vibrace kombinace oscilace a horizontální vibrace kombinace 3D vibrace a horizontální vibrace kombinace všech druhů vibrací Tichý a efektivní Pocítíte, jak trénink dokonale zapadne do rytmu vašeho dne. Srdcem platformy Julisa jsou tři tiché motory o celkovém výkonu 440 W, jejichž chod je téměř neslyšitelný, takže se můžete soustředit jen sami na sebe. Speciálně tvarovaná, mírně prohnutá platforma zajišťuje vysoký komfort a stabilitu a přiložená gumová antivibrační podložka účinně tlumí otřesy. Je to váš osobní prostor, kde stabilní konstrukce a promyšlený design umožňují harmonický trénink bez kompromisů. Síla plynoucí z vibrací Překonejte své limity a uvolněte skutečnou sílu proměny. Platforma Julisa využívá kombinované typy vibrací (oscilační, 3D a horizontální), které umožňují hlubší aktivaci svalů než běžné cvičení. Výkon 440 W a frekvence až 40 Hz zajišťují intenzivní stimulaci, která aktivuje i hluboké stabilizační svaly. Nejde jen o pohyb – jde o posílení od samotného středu těla. Jednoduché. Účinné! Zapomeňte na složité nastavování a soustřeďte se na to nejdůležitější – na cíl. Ovládání zajišťuje inovativní ovladač ve formě hodinek, který máte neustále po ruce. Všechny hodnoty přehledně sledujete na dotykovém LCD panelu a díky přednastaveným tréninkovým programům spustíte cvičení jediným dotykem. Intuitivní ovládání dělá z pokročilé technologie vašeho přirozeného pomocníka, takže energii věnujete tréninku, ne nastavování.Technický popis: skladná vibrační plošina pro efektivní posilování i uvolnění svalů mírně prohnutá nášlapná plocha široké možnosti využití zapojení hlubokého stabilizačního svalstva zlepšení rovnováhy 3 přednastavené programy 7 manuálních programů 60 rychlostí odnímatelné expandéry stabilní protiskluzové nožky protiskluzová gumová podložka v balení protiskluzová cvičební plocha dotykový LCD displej dálkové ovládání na ruku (knoflíková baterie CR2032 3V není součástí balení) napájení ze sítě typy vibrací: horizontální (ze strany na stranu), oscilační (houpačka), 3D vibrace, kombinované frekvence vibrací: 6 - 40 Hz rozměry: délka 78 x šířka 46 x výška 20 cm rozměry cvičební plochy: délka 68 x šířka 42 cm rozměry balení: délka 84 x šířka 52 x výška 25 cm výkon: 200 W + 200 W + 40 W (3 motory) hmotnost: 20 kg maximální nosnost: 120 kg vhodné pro domácí použití

The Pocket Scottish English

Know your from Arbroath smokies from your wynds, your trews from your sporran, and . . . lang may yer lum reek!Some say that Scots use more Scottish slang than English, but whether that’s true or not, the speech of most Scots is certainly peppered with slang. So, whether you’re visiting Glesga (Glasgow), home to Weegies, short for Glaswegians, the Granite City (Aberdeen) or the capital – known as Auld Reekie for the same reason that London was once, and sometimes still is, known as the Big Smoke – this concise guide will come in handy.There are many old Scottish sayings dating back to our grandparents’ day and beyond, but there are also many fairly recent inventions. Some of the older ones are rarely used now, which may be just as well, as they may baffle even a Scot, particularly depending on which part of Scotland you’re in.Scottish English varies greatly from the Highlands to South Ayrshire and from the east of the country to the west, with different words sometimes being used to describe the same thing in different places.Some sayings will ‘make yer heid mince’, some are poetic and many will just make you laugh. This is a book for visitors to Scotland and for anyone crossing the border, in either direction. It will also evoke a pang of homesickness in any Scottish expatriate.While a concise guide can’t possibly be exhaustive, it can, as this handy pocket book does, offer a revealing and entertaining selection of words and idioms in common usage.Gemini PocketsFrom little guides to soothe your soul to all-access passes to the lives of pop icons, and from quizzes and puzzles for literature lovers to books on food, nature, fashion and more, Gemini Pockets are the perfect fit for your life and interests.
